  1. Jo and I are celebrating our tenth anniversary this month, and so I've booked us a table at the Rare Cow restaurant. It's a lovely place, and I've been there once before, but upon choosing what to have I've come a-cropper, as they say. They do a Holy Cow Burger, which is as pictured below (that's two of the guys I went there with, shows scale between normal burger and Holy Cow): 24oz of pure meaty goodness, with salad and onion rings inside. I managed to get through approx 3/4 of mine before giving up. I put this solely down to having stuffed my face with a huge starter beforehand, and I know I could finish that muther in one go with ease on an empty stomach. However, I've seen they now do another epic food nom to try... That's a 74oz sirloin. Seventy four ounces. TWO WHOLE KILOGRAMS OF BEEF. Plus odds and sods, of course. Now, I look at that steak and wonder if I can really pass that up? But is it a bit excessive really (it's £99 just for that, the burger in comparison is just £29)? They are proper challenges too, so if you do the burger in 20 mins or the steak in 60 mins you get it free, but tbh I wouldn't rush it regardless. Either would be just for the sheer pleasure of great food in copious amounts. So folks, do I revisit the burger and conquer the one large meal that has ever beaten me, or do I throw caution to the wind and go for the steak?
  2. *waves hands* Yes to both. I really like DA2 despite all the flak it got, and I never noticed any of the repeated scenery or other badness that folks have mentioned since. Really looking forward to the new one next month. I adore Oblivion and Skyrim like they're my own children. Both so incredibly mesmerising.
  3. Extremists will hate the West regardless of whether we're interfering over there or not. That's the problem with extremists.
  4. Reminded me of this: I like it, but much like the Huracan I don't love it.
  5. Well yeah, of course there's GPS as otherwise no sat nav would work Basically there's still no way to use any internet-based map service as a sat nav via this system, not if you want it to work anywhere and any time. I've got the TT app for the phone, which for £30 was a bargain and is all I'll ever need. Works without data too
  6. Because your phone downloaded the map for your entire route before you left, as per post #31 If you'd gone significantly off course, or decided to go somewhere else, then it would've failed.
  7. The w belongs to the first number, not the second.
  8. Yes, because it uses gps based on the map you downloaded. No downloaded map, no routing. Turn off all data connections, and try it. I just did, it cannot locate me nor find any routes.
  9. Because you downloaded the route on wifi first. If you were in the arse end of nowhere and need the satnav, it's useless.
  10. Never mind supporting mods. Plus constant fettling. Plus higher running costs. But yeah, done correctly it can be good fun.
  11. Not really, as you'd need 3G to run it permanently, which isn't always a given. Until we get 100% UK 3G signal of course
  12. Nothing new, men have been blowing stuff in women's faces for years. Sometimes it's welcomed, mostly not though.
  13. I picked mine up from school.
  14. Ah, I knew I was going wrong somewhere. Thanks for the tip
  15. It's the only way now they've restricted supplies of chloroform.
  16. Worth a punt, if you don't have the time or inclination to do dating the regular way. If I was single I'd probably give it a go
  17. Spacing a plate is for losers who cannot spell. Get one with your initials, classy and still means something to you
  18. Yup, some will only ever fit N-spec, even if they're out of warranty. The mis-guided fools.
  19. not so much friendly on 911uk but technical knowledge was excellent, there is a member on there GT4 who seems to know more about Porsche than Porsche do I've met him IRL, really nice guy
  20. You're kidding, Porsche owners are NEVER wrong, it makes for some incredibly awkward debates!
  21. Member, yes. Avid, not really. Different kind of people, nice enough but I didn't really make any proper friends like I have here.
  22. I stay because no-one else will have me
